    Description

      The XML example in the C-CDA to FHIR Patient mapping gives the following patient name:

      <name use="L">
        <family>Jones</family>
        <given>Myra</given>
      </name>

      However, the CDA spec says that "Name parts occur in a natural order in which they would be displayed, as opposed to in a order detemined [sic] by name part."

      Therefore, as in this example, we should have the given name come first.
